detect exiting the website
in [JavaScript]

From: Pif on 6 Apr 2010 17:11 Hello, I've successed to capture de window closing event in my page. This unload event is also generated when going to another page of the website. I would like to be able to compare current URL with new one. How can I get the information of the new URL (none if closing ?) ? Thanks.

Why are you trying to detect if someone is leaving your web site?
From: Pif on 7 Apr 2010 03:25 We have an internal ERP. I need to modify session management to detect that a user disconnects and to free his resources. So, I would like to create following behaviour : - modal window on close to nothing - std window on close open dialog to suggest disconnection On 6 avr, 23:30, Jeremy J Starcher <r3...(a)yahoo.com> wrote: > > Why are you trying to detect if someone is leaving your web site?

If this succeeds then the document contained in the window is in the same domain, and you can check the url. If it fails (try/catch) then it has been navigated outside the domain. Do the appropriate action and close the window.

Or pulls the computers plug out of the wall? Detecting what the OP wants is simply not possible. Any design that relies on this is flawed and should be re-designed, as has been mentioned in many newsgroups many many times. |
